    Well, offhand, I would think it is because Google discovered a link within the "/sorry/" directory? But due to robots.txt it could not crawl and index it?

    http://www.foyerpoker.com/ In Sitemap URL restricted by robots.txt [?] Aug 16, 2006


    Here is the SItemap Diagnosis.They are blocking me my index and they are saying that I am blocking it myself.

    So where is the bug? In me or in them?

    Thanks in Advance!

    right now your site is down
    no DNS resolving
    no server response
    host unknown
    i guess you have first a few very basic work to complete successfully

    I'm not seeing an issue here... you restrict gbot from looking at the contents of /sorry/... the message: URLs restricted by robots.txt (1) just says that Google sees your restriction and understands it. It will not look in there.

    That's not an error message, it's a confirmation. :cool:

    You should be fine... make sense?

    yes

    In fact the error was that I had a netscape plugin which makes redirecting and google misunderstood that and gave me back robots.txt'error which is ridicilous :)

    Whatever , everything is working and stable now :)

    Thanks
